Did you know that you may be able to get out of a tax debt due to the misdeeds or fraud committed by your spouse?
If you are divorced, or your spouse is deceased, you may be eligible for Innocent Spouse relief if the liability in question belonged to your ex-spouse.
To qualify for this program, you must meet specific criteria determined by the IRS.
However, Innocent Spouse Relief was designed to alleviate unjust situations where one spouse was clearly the victim of fraud perpetrated by their spouse or ex-spouse.
If you qualify for Innocent Spouse Relief, you may not owe any tax.
